Chapter 715 - 348 Three Joys Arrive_2
Uncle Li, who attended exclusively to the flowers and plants here, was asked to transplant the six orchids and the Jun Zi Lan flower into pots. Seeing these flowers, Uncle Li’s eyes lit up, and he exclaimed repeatedly, "My, these are rare treasures. Especially these two Jun Zi Lan plants, I’ve never seen them before, they seem to be the legendary ’Five Sons Praying for Longevity’ and ’Pearl King’."
Yixiu was delighted to hear this and said, "Take good care of them. I want to take the ’Pearl King’ back to Beijing tomorrow to honor my maternal grandfather."
Such fine things couldn’t all be given to the husband’s family. Master Sangui might not appreciate the elegant, but Old Master Pan certainly would.
That evening, Liang Jinzhao wasn’t tired in the slightest and cajoled Yixiu into playing several rounds of a game.
Now he wasn’t afraid that Pearl Kid would cause trouble either. Since Monkey Brother and Monkey Sister weren’t in the room when they slept, Pearl Kid didn’t dare to come out. With a small net covering the Clam Shell House, he could do whatever he wanted.
But during the day, the net still had to be removed, lest they agitate Pearl Kid.
The next day, except for White Wolf and Dashan who stayed at the Chrysanthemum Courtyard of the Crown Prince Mansion, the rest of the House of Animals followed Yixiu and Liang Jinzhao back to Beijing. They also had the servants deliver branches of the Dragon Fragrance Tree to Master Jin at the Liancourt Workshop.
After entering Beijing, Little Monk went straight to the Qian family, and they went back to Liang Mansion. Upon entering the mansion, the doorman, with an appreciative eye for detail, said, "Young Master, Big Madam, Mr. Pan has visited the mansion. Old Duke, Master Duke, and Master Sangui are all sitting with him in the outer study right now."
Yixiu understood immediately. The examination had concluded, and Old Master Pan must have come to check on how Liang Jinchen had done. Although Old Master Pan was usually aloof and disliked social niceties, since his daughter’s incident, it seemed as though he had been brought down from heaven to earth, getting his feet on the ground. He did this, wishing to raise the Liang Family’s regard for her.
After Liang Jinzhao had washed up in the Lianxiang Courtyard, he went straight to the outer study with the "Pearl King" and a pot of orchids.
Yixiu had lunch and then went to sleep, exhausted from the past few days.
When she awoke, Liang Jinzhao had already returned. He said, "My grandfather really loved the ’Pearl King’, saying he last saw such a flower in Jiangnan twenty years ago. He thanks you for knowing your filial duties." Then he laughed heartily, "My grandfather’s face turned red with heartache when he saw the flower being given to my maternal grandfather. I told him there was still one ’Five Sons Praying for Longevity’ and three pots of rare orchids left, and he felt a bit better. He even said he’ll visit the farm tomorrow."
